What author do you just automatically read when they release a new book? Like you don't even care what the summary is, you know you're going to read it because they wrote it.

Dawn M Dean | 100 comments For me, it's Lisa Jewell and Megan Miranda. Although I do have a few authors on close standby that I feel like as I continue to read them - they could probably make the cut.

Rachel | 15 comments Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. I’ve loved their other 3 books and am anxiously awaiting their 4th. Lisa Jewell is becoming a favorite too.

I actually don’t have any. O.o I’m sort of a book cover reader. I see I book jacket I like, read the back and if the story catches me I read it.

BookishDramas (sanjibkd) | 27 comments Greig Beck is one of them. My recent read book.
From Hell
From Hell (Alex Hunter, #8) by Greig Beck
⭐⭐⭐ stars

#audible #sci-fi #creaturefeature #thriller
Love the author and his books but this the #8 th book in the series has been the weakest so far considering there are a couple of novellas in between too.
#awesome concept and start. Slows down in between.

Tanya | 1 comments I do wish to have authors like this but somehow it just feels impossible. Maybe I will find an author like that, will just keep on reading.


message 24: by Shannon (new)

Shannon Tee | 1 comments I am originally from NJ, so I love reading Harlan Coben books. Comparing them to the tv adaptations after is fun.

Peter Swanson, Ruth Ware, Karin Slaughter, Freida McFadden, and Alex Finlay. There's a few more but I already got carried away!


message 25: by Natalie (new)

Natalie Merrill | 2 comments OOOOH! I have a couple that are autobuy authors for me!

I will read literally anything these authors put out no matter what the synopsis is!

Riley Sager, Peter Swanson, BA Paris, Liv Constantine, Noelle W. Ihli to name a few.
I did go through a Freida McFadden kick but a lot of her books have fallen flat for me lately!

In Too Deep (Jack Reacher, #29) by Lee Child
3 Stars
Reacher
Andrew has done a fair bit of improvement in the last couple of novels but somehow I feel that the soul is missing.
